You're halfway through building your app...
and a new AI tool drops.
Suddenly you're in a new tab.
New login.
New tutorial.
And your app? Still sitting there, almost done.
That's Shiny Object Syndrome, and it's the #1 thing I see stalling builders.
So I made a little cartoon about it 😂
Meet Professor Shay & Byte, Episode 01: The Shiny Object Syndrome.
Byte says it best:
"Professor, we ain't even finished with the last one."
Here's how we handle it in Pattern2Products:
1️⃣ Run the new tool through 3A+R
Adapt, Adopt, Already Ahead, or Reject?
Most shiny tools land in Already Ahead or Reject.
That's a win. It protects your build.
2️⃣ If it passes, use PPCD
Purpose. Place. Click. Verified Done.
One step at a time, until you can SEE it worked.
Watch the episode below 👇 then drop a comment:
What's the shiny tool that pulled you off your build this month?
And if the app you're building needs to get into the App Store and you don't own a Mac, the No Mac Workshop is Thursday, Nov 19 @7pm Eastern (8pm Grenada).
Finish the build. Then chase the next shiny thing. 💜
